There are no philanthropists in football. Yet 'investors' keep 'investing' in clubs which lose money by the tens and even hundreds of millions. Why? And why are so few people asking that question?

Hawker Typhoon Ib. This fighter bomber type played a big part in the Normandy campaign of 1944. This one never saw action; she was shipped to the USA for testing, then stored. Acquired by the RAF Museum, she is seen here at RAF Coningsby, the home of the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight

I'm suddenly very tired, but I'm so happy to have folks here on Bluesky the way I used to have folks on Twitter. I'm weird. I'm a nerd. I have ADHD. I VERY SUDDENLY think VERY HARD about things and there are people here to think hard with me, in a way real life doesn't afford me. I love it. Thanks.

Word of the day, though I’m sure no one will need it, is ‘eye servant’ (16th century): an individual who only pays attention or works hard when the boss is looking.

For the 10th anniversary of Chvrches' debut album The Bones of What We Believe, I reimagined the first tour poster I did for them. I thought it would be a good way to show our progress over the last decade. Available to Spotify Fans First subscribers, I think it sold out pretty much immediately.

oh joy, when it is raining a lot outside the flat it is once again raining a little bit inside the flat, the housing association, to be fair to them, sent some people to fix the roof over the summer but clearly the rain simply yearns to be inside my home

motion to rename debate to “artist vs writer” to better signify their impotance #artcred
It's been a while since we had the last comic writers vs artists debate.
It's an important natural cycle, like catching a cold and developing antibodies. Keeps you strong and virile and I like to watch.

I've never been into video games, I mean I've never played one ever, but watching Arcane on Netflix with its amazing art, brilliant character-driven storytelling, exciting action sequences, and high emotional stakes, for the first time I'm wondering if I've been missing out.
